Child Safety
It Makes A Difference
Where Your TV Stands
Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy
your new TV, keep these safety tips in mind:
The Issue
If you are like most Americans, you have a TV in your home.
Many homes, in fact, have more than one TV.
The home theater entertainment experience is a growing
trend, and larger TVs are popular purchases; however, they
are not always supported on the proper TV stands.
Sometimes TVs are improperly secured or inappropriately
situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, audio
speakers, chests, or carts. As a result, TVs may fall over,
causing unnecessary injury.
Toshiba Cares!
The consumer electronics industry
is committed to making home
entertainment enjoyable and safe.
The Consumer Electronics
Association formed the Home
Entertainment Support Safety
Committee, comprised of TV and
consumer electronics furniture
manufacturers, to advocate
childrens safety and educate
consumers and their families about
television safety.
Tune Into Safety
One size does NOT fit all! Use appropriate
furniture large enough to support the weight of your
TV (and other electronic components).
Use appropriate angle braces, straps, and anchors to secure
your furniture to the wall (but never screw anything directly
into the TV).
Carefully read and understand the other enclosed
instructions for proper use of this product.
Do not allow children to climb on or play with furniture
and TVs.
Avoid placing any item on top of your TV (such as a VCR,
remote control, or toy) that a curious child may reach for.
Remember that children can become excited while watching
a program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.
Share our safety message about this hidden hazard of
the
home with your family and friends. Thank you!

Care
For better performance and safer operation of your TOSHIBA
TV, follow these recommendations and precautions:
27) Always sit approximately 1025 feet away from the TV and
as directly in front of it as possible. The picture can appear
dull if you sit too far to the left or right of the TV, or if
sunlight or room lights reflect on the screen. Turn the TV
off to check for reflections on the screen, and then remove
the source of reflections while viewing the TV.
28) Always unplug the TV before
cleaning. Never use liquid or
aerosol cleaners.
29) WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
Never spill liquids or push objects of any kind
into the TV cabinet slots.
30) [This item applies to projection TVs only.] If the air
temperature rises suddenly (for example, when the TV is
first delivered), condensation may form on the lenses. This
can make the picture appear distorted or the color appear
faded. If this happens, turn off the TV for 6 to 7 hours to
allow the condensation to evaporate.
31)For added protection of your TV from lightning and power
surges, always unplug the power cord and disconnect the
antenna from the TV if you leave the TV unattended or
unused for long periods of time.
32) During normal use, the TV may make
occasional snapping or popping
sounds. This is normal, especially
when the unit is being turned on or
off. If these sounds become frequent
or continuous, unplug the power cord
and contact a Toshiba Authorized Service Center.
33) Possible Adverse Effects on TV Picture Tube: If a fixed
(non-moving) pattern remains on the TV screen for long
periods of time, the image can become permanently
engrained in the picture tube and cause subtle but
permanent ghost images. This type of damage is NOT
COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. Never leave your TV
on for long periods of time while it is displaying the
following formats or images:
Fixed Images, such as PIP/POP windows, stock tickers,
video game patterns, TV station logos, and websites.
Special Formats that do not use the entire screen. For
example, viewing letterbox style (16:9) media on a
normal (4:3) display (gray bars at top and bottom of
screen); or viewing normal style (4:3) media on a
widescreen (16:9) display (gray bars on left and right
sides of screen).
Service
34) WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK! Never attempt to service the
TV yourself. Opening and
removing the covers may expose
you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to a
Toshiba Authorized Service Center.
35) If you have the TV serviced:
Ask the service technician to use only replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer.
Upon completion of service, ask
the service technician to perform
routine safety checks to determine
that the TV is in safe operating
condition.
36)When the TV reaches the end of its useful life, ask a
qualified service technician to properly dispose of the TV.
Improper disposal may result in a picture tube implosion
and possible personal injury.

Connecting your TV
Note: Cables are not supplied with your TV.
Coaxial cable is the cable that comes in from your antenna, cable TV service, or cable
converter box. Coaxial cable uses F connectors.
Standard stereo A/V cables usually come in sets of three, and are typically color-coded
according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono)
audio. Your TVs standard A/V inputs are color-coded in the same manner as the cables.
S-Video cable is for use with video equipment that has S-Video connectors.
Component video cables come in sets of three (typically color-coded green, blue, and red),
and are for use with video equipment that has component video connectors. Your TVs
ColorStream
®
(component video) inputs are color-coded yellow, blue, and red. Plug the
green component video cable into the yellow VIDEO-2 input (see Back of TV on page 6).
NOTE REGARDING PICTURE QUALITY
When connecting video equipment to your Toshiba TV:
For GOOD picture quality: Use a standard yellow video cable.
For BETTER picture quality: If your equipment has S-video connectors, use an
S-video cable instead of a standard yellow video cable. You still must connect the
standard red and white audio cables for full system connection, but do not connect
a standard yellow video cable at the same time or the picture performance will be
unacceptable.
For BEST picture quality: If your equipment has component video connectors,
use component video cables instead of a standard yellow video cable or S-video
cable. You still must connect the standard red and white audio cables for full
system connection.
CAUTION: Do not plug in any power cords
until you have finished connecting all equipment.

progressive scan DVD player, you must switch the DVD
player to 480i interlaced mode first, and then connect it to
the TV’s ColorStream inputs. Failure to do this will cause a poor
picture or no picture to display.
You can connect a high-definition set-top receiver only if the
output is switched to 480i interlaced mode first. This TV will
not accept or display 480p or 720p progressive scan
signals or 1080i interlaced high-definition signals.

If you have a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device that the remote control is not preprogrammed
to operate:
You can program the TV remote control so it will operate the other device. See pages 12–14.
Installing the remote control batteries
1 Remove the battery cover from the back of the remote control.
Caution:
Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal
area. Do not throw batteries into a fire.
Do not mix battery types or combine used
batteries with new ones.
Remove dead batteries immediately to prevent
battery acid from leaking into the battery
compartment.
If you do not intend to use the remote control
for a long time, remove the batteries.
Note:
If your Toshiba TV remote control does not
operate all the features of your other device,
use the original remote control for that device.
Squeeze tab
and lift cover.
2 Install two “AA” size batteries, making sure to match the + and –
signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.
3 Reinsert the battery cover in the remote control until the tab snaps.

Using the
Remote Control
1 In the remote control code table (below and on the next page), find
the code for your device. If more than one code is listed, try each one
separately until you find one that works.
2 Set the Device Switch to the type of device you are programming
the remote control to operate—CBL/SAT (for a cable converter box
or satellite receiver), VCR (for a VCR or TV/VCR combo), or DVD
(for a DVD player or HTIB [home theater in a box]).
3 While holding down RECALL, press the Channel Number buttons
to enter the 3-digit code for your device.
4 To test the code, turn on the device, point the remote control at it, and
press POWER.
If the correct code was entered, the device will turn off.
If the device does not respond, repeat steps 1–4 using another code.
If the device does not respond to another code, you will need to use
the remote control that came with the device.
Note: In addition to POWER, confirm that all necessary keys on the TV
remote control operate your device. If some keys are not operational,
repeat the device code setup using another code (if other codes are
listed for your device). If, after trying all listed codes, the necessary keys
do not operate your device, use the device’s original remote control.
5 Remember to set the Device Switch back to “TV” to control the TV.
6 For future reference, write down the code(s) you used:
Programming the remote control to operate a cable converter box,
satellite receiver, VCR, DVD player, or HTIB (home theater in a box)
Your Toshiba TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate most Toshiba devices. To program your TV remote
control to operate a non-Toshiba device (or a Toshiba device that it is not preprogrammed to operate), follow the steps
below. For details on using the remote control to operate the device, see page 14.

Note:
Each time you change the batteries, you will need to reprogram the remote control.
Some newer VCRs respond to either of two codes. These VCRs have a switch labeled “VCR1/
VCR2.” If your VCR has this kind of switch and does not respond to the codes for your VCR brand,
set the switch to the other position (“VCR1” or “VCR2”) and reprogram the remote control.
